Advocating to Reinstitute Voting Rights Because A Felon is Black is Just As Racist As Denying Reinstitution Because A Felon Is Black

The media-avoided issue inherent within the position of Eric Holder is his open racist intent.   Were he to be in a position of advocacy for all released felons based on the premise their collective debt to society is paid in full, and voting rights should be reinstated, it would be a reasonable discussion.   However, that’s not the framework.   No, this Attorney General is framing his position around the race of one single group of felons, blacks.

WASHINGTON DC – Attorney General Eric Holder is urging states to restore voting rights to former prison inmates.

Holder says 11 states continue to restrict voting rights after a person has served a prison sentence and is no longer on probation or parole.   He says nearly one in 13 African-American adults is banned from voting because of these laws.

Holder’s remarks, delivered at a symposium on the nation’s criminal justice system, are part of his initiative seeking fundamental changes to the system.

Last August, Holder instructed federal prosecutors to stop charging many nonviolent drug defendants with offenses that carry mandatory minimum sentences. He said long mandatory terms have flooded the nation’s prisons with low-level drug offenders and diverted money away for crime fighting. Holder is working with Congress to address the problem.  (read more)

Hiring Someone Because They Are Black is Just As Racist As Not Hiring Someone Because They Are Black

Former Community Relations Service Director, Ondray Harris, quit last year because he was under pressure in Washington DC to only hire black people.   Mr. Harris saw this as discrimination.   President Obama signed an executive order in 2010 to change school disciplinary standards for only black males.  Now this….. 

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is obtaining commitments from foundations, businesses and community groups to help young minority men improve their employment opportunities and to intervene before some of them get sucked into the criminal justice system.

Obama is launching the “My Brother’s Keeper” initiative Thursday, matching his State of the Union pledge to “help more young men of color … stay on track and reach their full potential.”

The president has invited business, foundation and community leaders to the White House Thursday to announce the effort.

The unemployment rate last month for African-American men over the age of 20 was 12 percent, compared with 5.4 percent for white men. Hispanic men over the age of 20 faced an unemployment rate of 8.2 percent.  (read more)

You won’t see this outside of local news because, yet again, it presents an uncomfortable reality.

Tampa FL – […] The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s office says they called in 60 extra deputies that night from the surrounding area.

“There was a strong presence from the Sheriff’s Office out there, but we were tapped to our limits,” said Colonel Jim Previtera with the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.

Even the extra deputies were overwhelmed.

“We literally had deputies who were out there with no back up engaged in fights. (more…)

Famous for his insufferable naiveté surrounding Trayvon Martin, actor Jamie Fox joins a peace walk in Miami Gardens.   The profound stupidity of the entire fiasco is exemplified in the fact that Trayvon Martin’s father, Tracy “Fruit” Martin, was specifically the one engaged with his son to discuss purchasing a handgun for him. 

…Yet there he is, in the front row, nodding and clapping away !    

The information about Trayvon’s father and guns was hidden from the general public by the media refusing to cover it.  It was discovered during a late night evidentiary proffer hearing when the contents of Trayvon’s phone were being argued as admissible or not.

(Via Truth Revolt)  This past Saturday in Miami Gardens, actor Jamie Foxx helped lead a peace walk through the streets to a local complex where a rally was held in remembrance of Trayvon Martin.  During his remarks, Foxx suggested that gun violence is mostly a problem for black Americans.

“The blood that flows through America that is from gun violence is mostly African-American, and yet you young black folk sit here mute and ya’ll don’t say nothing about it.”

Foxx is not one to shy from controversy. The actor wore a “Know Justice, Know Peace” shirt with Trayvon’s face on it to the 2013 MTV Movie Awards.

In the final analysis the intellectually honest observer would admit the GOP and the Democrats are generally aligned in favor of government control of Healthcare and Immigration, ie. amnesty.

In a recent New York Times article titled “Chastened G.O.P. Tries to Foil Insurgents at Primary Level” you find a typical narrative; Tea Party is EXTREME and GOP is moderate. Searching for an outlier to use as representative Tea Party imagery the Times select Virginian whacko Richard H Black to broad stroke conservatives, while framing ‘moderation’ as the best political course.

Nothing is more annoying than the constant drumbeat to connect outliers in the Alinsky-ization of grass roots concern. Isolate, Ridicule and Marginalize. Then wash, rinse, repeat.

What the GOP fear more than defeat against democrats is losing internal power over Big Business and Big Government. Establishment class Republicans, like those found inside the rolls of the Chamber of Commerce, will fight for their own power hungry ideology with a desperate intent.

(Times Excerpt) […] In House and Senate races across the country, many of the traditional and influential centers of power within the party are taking sides in primaries, overwhelming challengers on the right with television ads and, in some cases, retaliating against those who are helping the insurgents. In Mr. Black’s case, one by one, powerful Republicans started backing his rival, Barbara J. Comstock, a member of the State House of Delegates. First Mitt Romney endorsed her. Then came Citizens United and the president of Americans for Prosperity, the group financed by the wealthy Koch brothers. (more…)

The transparency of the progressive movement is obvious.   In the 2012 election cycle we were introduced to Sandra Fluke and her demands of tax-payer funded contraception; this evolved into the ‘War On Women’ faux-outrage campaign.

In this 2014 election cycle the angst needs additional victimization check boxes.  Ergo you are being introduced to a “black” (check box one for race/victimization),  “gay” (check box two for sexual orientation/victimization), “collegiate football player” (check box three for youth vote/victimization), Michael Sam, who announces his sexual orientation as a measure of his fluke-like worthiness to the progressive left.

Whether Michael Sam is a good football player, a man of strong moral fiber, or an intellectual powerhouse, is irrelevant to the cause.

If he does not get drafted into the NFL the narrative will be because he’s gay and the NFL is homophobic – A successful victim, very useful.

If he does get drafted into the NFL it will be because the world is changing and *despite his victimization* he has succeeded.   A successful victim, very useful.

One only needs to look at how the progressive left is scripting the introduction to know that YOU WILL SEE THIS NAME EVERY DAY FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR.

“His story sends a message to LGBT, young people, especially young black men, that you are free to show up in the world as your authentic self and others will embrace you”. (USA Today)

If he does get not drafted a coast-to-coast “Democrats In 2014”  bus tour campaign win begin.   Eventually leading to Michael Sam being the Missouri 2016 Senate or House Candidate. (more…)

The Washington Free Beacon has a great outline worth spending some time digesting:

The Clinton Files

On May 12, 1992, Stan Greenberg and Celinda Lake, top pollsters for Bill Clinton’s presidential campaign, issued a confidential memo. The memo’s subject was “Research on Hillary Clinton.”

Voters admired the strength of the Arkansas first couple, the pollsters wrote. However, “they also fear that only someone too politically ambitious, too strong, and too ruthless could survive such controversy so well.”

Their conclusion: “What voters find slick in Bill Clinton, they find ruthless in Hillary.”

The full memo is one of many previously unpublished documents contained in the archive of one of Hillary Clinton’s best friends and advisers, documents that portray the former first lady, secretary of State, and potential 2016 presidential candidate as a strong, ambitious, and ruthless Democratic operative.

ALL YOUR CHILDREN ARE BELONG TO US ! – Two things to consider as you review the outline “School Gets Kids to Snitch on Parents“.

First, do you remember the Wisconsin School Teachers Union, and their activity around opposition to Governor Scott Walker’s financial reforms? If you do you’ll remember the teachers bringing students to protest with them, along with Madison University students and the fake doctors notes that resulted in investigations of fraud.

Secondly, if you read George Orwell’s 1984 you might remember Winston Smith’s mindless neighbor Tom Parsons, who believed all Party doctrine unquestioningly. Yet he wound up undergoing state torture because his state-indoctrinated brats were encouraged to turn him in for being a thought criminal ?

Wisconsin School Gets Kids to Snitch on Parents – The game is called “Cross the Line” and many outraged parents believe that it does just that.

A middle school in Marinette, Wisconsin got a group of 5th-8th graders together and organized a really fun game that asked students to step forward to answer “yes” to a series of highly personal questions.

Questions like:

Do your parents drink?
Do you cut yourself?
Has anyone in your family been to jail?
Have you ever wanted to commit suicide?
Do you or your parents do drugs?

Unbelievably, school administrators believed that this “game” would help the kids to be better and kinder friends. “The intent of this activity was to build stronger, more respectful relationships among students,” said Principal Shawn Limberg. The “game” was part of an anti-bullying program. (more…)

David Simon, a former police beat reporter in Baltimore, MD and creator of the popular television series, “The Wire” implies that Libertarians in America are “greedy” and decries Libertarianism as a “juvenile” idea that he “just can’t get past….”  

Clearly upset that Fabian ideology is not taking root in the 20-somethings community, while the Libertarian movement is growing as an identified political affiliation in the cohort,  he gave a speech in Australia in November, 2013 at the “Dangerous Ideas” conference declaring “Libertarianism in my country is now being taken seriously as an intelligent mode of political thought… it’s astonishing to me… ” (around the 8:00 – 10:00 mark) and then goes on a screed to deliberately disparage and attempt to dismiss the Libertarian school of thought – including the assertion that Libertarians are “anti-government” (as Moyers chuckles along in agreement…)  Fraidy cat!

SNOW SAFARI – A couple of local families decided to take their kids sledding during a school-closed snow day in Georgia.   Pack of 30+ teen thugs pelted one wife and baby with snowballs, jumped on cars, and then quickly launched into frenzied attack mode when told to stop….   Reverse the races and this would be 24/7 CNN News.

WARNER ROBINS — Two teens have been arrested in connection with an attack in front of Warner Robins High School while school was out due to snow.

Shymalik Raekwon Mitchell, 17, of Warner Robins, was arrested Wednesday and charged with aggravated assault, according to a news release from the Warner Robins Police Department.

Terrell Antonio Boyd, 17, also of Warner Robins, was charged with battery. Additional arrests may be pending as the investigation continues, the release said.

According to police, a group of about 30 people were having a snowball fight at the high school Jan. 29. Members of the group allegedly were jumping on vehicles in the parking lot, and when one of the vehicle’s owners asked them to stop, they allegedly attacked that person and three others who came to his aid.
